WHEREAS, the Mortgagor is the owner of a certain tract or parcel of land
described in Exhibit A attached hereto and made a part hereof, together with the

WHEREAS, pursuant to a certain Loan Agreement dated as of May 28, 2004 by
and between Xxxx Xxxxxxx Auctions, Inc. and the Mortgagee, as amended by the

amended in the future, the "Loan Agreement") the Mortgagor has borrowed from the
Mortgagee, an amount not to exceed One Million Three Hundred Twelve Thousand
Five Hundred Dollars ($1,312,500.00) (the "Mortgage Loan"), which Loan is
evidenced by one or more promissory notes or guaranties in favor of the
Mortgagee dated the date hereof (the "Mortgage Note");
NOW, THEREFORE, for the purpose of securing the payment and performance of
the following obligations (collectively called the "Obligations"):
(A) The Mortgage Loan, the Mortgage Note and all other "Obligations" as
defined under the Loan Agreement.
(B) Any sums advanced by the Mortgagee or which may otherwise become due
pursuant to the provisions of the Mortgage Note or this Mortgage or pursuant to
any other document or instrument at any time delivered to the Mortgagee to
evidence or secure any of the Obligations or which otherwise relate to any of
the Obligations (as the same may be amended, supplemented or replaced from time
to time, the "Loan Documents").
The Mortgagor, for good and valuable consideration, receipt of which is hereby
acknowledged, and intending to be legally bound hereby, does hereby give, grant,
bargain, sell, convey, assign as security, transfer, mortgage, hypothecate,
pledge as security, set over and confirm unto the Mortgagee and does agree that
the Mortgagee shall have a security interest in the following described
property, all accessions and additions thereto, all substitutions therefor and
replacements and proceeds thereof, and all reversions and remainders of such
property now owned or held or hereafter acquired (the "Property"), to wit:
(a) All of the Mortgagor's estate in the premises described in
Exhibit A, together with all of the easements, rights of way, privileges,
liberties, hereditaments, gores, streets, alleys, passages, ways, waters,
watercourses, rights and appurtenances thereunto belonging or appertaining, and
all of the Mortgagor's estate, right, title, interest, claim and demand therein
and in the public streets and ways adjacent thereto, either in law or in equity
(the "Land");
(b) All the buildings, structures and improvements of every kind and
description now or hereafter erected or placed on the Land, and all facilities,
fixtures, machinery, apparatus, appliances, installations, machinery and
equipment, including all building materials to be incorporated into such
buildings, all electrical equipment necessary for the operation of such
buildings and heating, air conditioning and plumbing equipment now or hereafter
attached to, located in or used in connection with those buildings, structures
or other improvements (the "Improvements");
(c) All rents, issues and profits arising or issuing from the Land
and the Improvements (the "Rents") including the Rents arising or issuing from
all leases, licenses, subleases or any other use or occupancy agreement now or
hereafter entered into covering all or any part of the Land and Improvements
(the "Leases"), all of which Leases and Rents are hereby assigned to the
Mortgagee by the Mortgagor. The foregoing assignment shall be an absolute
assignment of all of the Mortgagor's entire interest in the Rents. The foregoing
assignment shall also include all fees, charges, accounts or other payments for
the use or occupancy of rooms and other public facilities in hotels, motels, or
other lodging properties, and all cash or securities deposited under Leases to
secure performance of lessees of their obligations thereunder, whether such cash
or securities are to be held until the expiration of the terms of such leases or
applied to one or more installments of rent coming due prior to the expiration
of such terms. The foregoing assignment extends to Rents arising both before and
after the commencement by or against the Mortgagor of any case or proceeding
under any Federal or State bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law, and is
intended as an absolute assignment and not merely the granting of a security
interest. The Mortgagor, however, shall have a license to collect, retain and
use the Rents so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing or shall exist. The Mortgagor will execute and deliver to the
Mortgagee, on demand, such additional assignments and instruments as the
Mortgagee may require to confirm, maintain and continue the assignment of Rents
hereunder;
(d) All proceeds of the conversion, voluntary or involuntary, of any
of the foregoing into cash or liquidated claims; and
(e) Without limiting any of the other provisions of this Mortgage,
the Mortgagor, as debtor, expressly grants unto the Mortgagee, as secured party,
a security interest in all personal property of the Mortgagor, including the
following, all whether now owned or hereafter acquired or arising and wherever
located: (i) accounts (including health-care-insurance receivables and credit
card receivables); (ii) securities entitlements, securities accounts, commodity
accounts, commodity contracts and investment property; (iii) deposit accounts;
(iv) instruments (including promissory notes); (v) documents (including
warehouse receipts); (vi) chattel paper (including electronic chattel paper and
tangible chattel paper); (vii) inventory, including raw materials, work in
process, or materials used or consumed in Mortgagor's business, items held for
sale or lease or furnished or to be furnished under contracts of service, sale
or lease, goods that are returned, reclaimed or repossessed; (viii) goods of
every nature, including stock-in-trade, goods on consignment, standing timber
that is to be cut and removed under a conveyance or contract for sale, the
unborn young of animals, crops grown, growing, or to be grown, manufactured
homes, computer programs embedded in such goods and farm products; (ix)
equipment, including machinery, vehicles and furniture; (x) fixtures; (xi)
agricultural liens; (xii) as-extracted collateral; (xiii) letter of credit
rights; (xiv) general intangibles, of every kind and description, including

records and data, all existing and future customer lists, choses in action,
claims (including claims for indemnification or breach of warranty), books,
records, patents and patent applications, copyrights, trademarks, tradenames,
tradestyles, trademark applications, goodwill, blueprints, drawings, designs and
plans, trade secrets,
2
contracts, licenses, license agreements, formulae, tax and any other types of
refunds, returned and unearned insurance premiums, rights and claims under
insurance policies; (xv) all supporting obligations of all of the foregoing
property; (xvi) all property of the Mortgagor now or hereafter in the
Mortgagee's possession or in transit to or from, or under the custody or control
of, the Mortgagee or any affiliate thereof; (xvii) all cash and cash equivalents
thereof; and (xviii) all cash and noncash proceeds (including insurance
proceeds) of all of the foregoing property, all products thereof and all
additions and accessions thereto, substitutions therefor and replacements
thereof. The Mortgagor will execute and deliver to the Mortgagee on demand such
financing statements and other instruments as the Mortgagee may require in order
to perfect, protect and maintain such security interest under the Uniform
Commercial Code ("UCC") on the aforesaid collateral.
To have and to hold the same unto the Mortgagee, its successors and
assigns, forever.
Provided, however, that if the Mortgagor shall pay to the Mortgagee the
Obligations, and if the Mortgagor shall keep and perform each of its other
covenants, conditions and agreements set forth herein and in the other Loan
Documents, then, upon the termination of all obligations, duties and commitments
of the Mortgagor under the Obligations and this Mortgage, and subject to the
provisions of the paragraph entitled "Survival; Successors and Assigns", the
estate hereby granted and conveyed shall become null and void.
1. Representations and Warranties. The Mortgagor represents and warrants
to the Mortgagee that (i) the Mortgagor has good and marketable title to an
estate in fee simple absolute in the Land and Improvements and has all right,
title and interest in all other property constituting a part of the Property, in
each case free and clear of all liens and encumbrances, except as may otherwise
be set forth on an Exhibit B hereto and (ii) its name, type of organization,
jurisdiction of organization and chief executive office are true and complete as
set forth in the heading of this Mortgage. This Mortgage is a valid and
enforceable first lien on the Property (except as set forth on Exhibit B) and
the Mortgagee shall, subject to the Mortgagor's right of possession prior to an
Event of Default, quietly enjoy and possess the Property. The Mortgagor shall
preserve such title as it warrants herein and the validity and priority of the
lien hereof and shall forever warrant and defend the same to the Mortgagee
against the claims of all persons.
2. Affirmative Covenants. Until all of the Obligations shall have been
fully paid, satisfied and discharged the Mortgagor shall:
(a) Payment and Performance of Obligations. Pay or cause to be paid
and perform all Obligations when due as provided in the Loan Documents.
(b) Legal Requirements. Promptly comply with and conform to all
present and future laws, statutes, codes, ordinances, orders and regulations and
all covenants, restrictions and conditions which may be applicable to the
Mortgagor or to any of the Property (the "Legal Requirements").
(c) Impositions. Before interest or penalties are due thereon and
otherwise when due, unless the Mortgagor is contesting any of the same in good
faith, the Mortgagor shall pay all taxes of every kind and nature, all charges
for any easement or agreement maintained for the benefit of any of the Property,
all general and special assessments (including any condominium or planned unit
development assessments, if any), levies, permits, inspection and license fees,
all water and sewer rents and charges, and all other charges and liens, whether
of a like or different nature, imposed upon or assessed against the Mortgagor or
any of the Property (the "Impositions"). Within thirty (30) days after the
payment of any
3
Imposition, the Mortgagor shall deliver to the Mortgagee written evidence
acceptable to the Mortgagee of such payment. The Mortgagor's obligations to pay
the Impositions shall survive the Mortgagee's taking title to (and possession
of) the Property through foreclosure, deed-in-lieu or otherwise, as well as the
termination of the Mortgage including, without limitation, by merger into a
deed.
(d) Maintenance of Security. Use, and permit others to use, the
Property only for its present use or such other uses as permitted by applicable
Legal Requirements and approved in writing by the Mortgagee. The Mortgagor shall
keep the Property in good condition and order and in a rentable and tenantable
state of repair and will make or cause to be made, as and when necessary, all
repairs, renewals, and replacements, structural and nonstructural, exterior and
interior, foreseen and unforeseen, ordinary and extraordinary, provided,
however, that no structural repairs, renewals or replacements shall be made
without the Mortgagee's prior written consent. The Mortgagor shall not remove,
demolish or alter the Property nor commit or suffer waste with respect thereto,
nor permit the Property to become deserted or abandoned. The Mortgagor covenants
and agrees not to take or permit any action with respect to the Property which
will in any manner impair the security of this Mortgage or the use of the
Property as set forth in the Loan Documents.
3. Leases. The Mortgagor shall not (a) execute an assignment or pledge of
the Rents or the Leases other than in favor of the Mortgagee; (b) accept any
prepayment of an installment of any Rents prior to the due date of such
installment; or (c) enter into or amend any of the terms of any of the Leases
without the Mortgagee's prior written consent. Any or all leases or subleases of
all or any part of the Property shall be subject in all respects to the
Mortgagee's prior written consent, shall be subordinated to this Mortgage and to
the Mortgagee's rights and, together with any and all rents, issues or profits
relating thereto, shall be assigned at the time of execution to the Mortgagee as
additional collateral security for the Obligations, all in such form, substance
and detail as is satisfactory to the Mortgagee in its sole discretion.
4. Due on Sale Clause. The Mortgagor shall not sell, convey or otherwise
transfer any interest in the Property (whether voluntarily or by operation of
law), or agree to do so, without the Mortgagee's prior written consent,
including (a) any sale, conveyance, assignment, or other transfer of (including
installment land sale contracts), or the grant of a security interest in, all or
any part of the legal or equitable title to the Property, except as otherwise
permitted hereunder; (b) any lease of all or any portion of the Property; or (c)
any sale, conveyance, encumbrance, assignment, or other transfer of, or the
grant of a security interest in, any share of stock of the Mortgagor, if a
corporation or any partnership interest in the Mortgagor, if a partnership, or
any membership interest, if a limited liability entity, except in favor of the
Mortgagee. Any default under this Section shall cause an immediate acceleration
of the Obligations without any demand by the Mortgagee.
5. Insurance. The Mortgagor shall keep the Property continuously insured,
in an amount not less than the cost to replace the Property or an amount not
less than eighty percent (80%) of the full insurable value of the Property,
whichever is greater, covering such risks and in such amounts and with such
deductibles as are satisfactory to the Mortgagee and its counsel including,
without limitation, insurance against loss or damage by fire, with extended
coverage and against other hazards as the Mortgagee may from time to time
require. With respect to any property under construction or reconstruction, the
Mortgagor shall maintain builder's risk insurance. The Mortgagor shall also
maintain comprehensive general public liability insurance, in an amount of not
less than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) per occurrence and Two Million
Dollars ($2,000,000) general aggregate per location, which includes contractual
liability insurance for the Mortgagor's obligations under the Leases, and
worker's compensation insurance. All property and builder's risk insurance shall
include protection for continuation of income for a period of twelve (12)
months, in the event of any damage caused by the perils referred to above. All
policies, including policies for any amounts carried in excess of the required
4
minimum and policies not specifically required by the Mortgagee, shall be with
an insurance company or companies satisfactory to the Mortgagee, shall be in
form satisfactory to the Mortgagee, shall meet all coinsurance requirements of
the Mortgagee, shall be maintained in full force and effect, shall be assigned
to the Mortgagee, with premiums prepaid, as collateral security for payment of
the Obligations, shall be endorsed with a standard mortgagee clause in favor of
the Mortgagee and shall provide for at least thirty (30) days notice of
cancellation to the Mortgagee. Such insurance shall also name the Mortgagee as
an additional insured under the comprehensive general public liability policy
and the Mortgagor shall also deliver to the Mortgagee a copy of the replacement
cost coverage endorsement. If the Property is located in an area which has been
identified by any governmental agency, authority or body as a flood hazard area
or the like, then the Mortgagor shall maintain a flood insurance policy covering
the Property in an amount not less than the original principal amount of the
Loan or the maximum limit of coverage available under the federal program,
whichever amount is less.
6. Rights of Mortgagee to Insurance Proceeds. In the event of loss, the
Mortgagee shall have the exclusive right to adjust, collect and compromise all
insurance claims, and the Mortgagor shall not adjust, collect or compromise any
claims under said policies without the Mortgagee's prior written consent. Each
insurer is hereby authorized and directed to make payment under said policies,
including return of unearned premiums, directly to the Mortgagee instead of to
the Mortgagor and the Mortgagee jointly, and the Mortgagor appoints the
Mortgagee as the Mortgagor's attorney-in-fact to endorse any draft therefor. All
insurance proceeds may, at the Mortgagee's sole option, be applied to all or any
part of the Obligations and in any order (notwithstanding that such Obligations
may not then otherwise be due and payable) or to the repair and restoration of
any of the Property under such terms and conditions as the Mortgagee may impose.
7. Installments for Insurance, Taxes and Other Charges. Upon the
Mortgagee's request, the Mortgagor shall pay to the Mortgagee monthly, an amount
equal to one-twelfth (1/12) of the annual premiums for the insurance policies
referred to hereinabove and the annual Impositions and any other item which at
any time may be or become a lien upon the Property (the "Escrow Charges"). The
amounts so paid shall be used in payment of the Escrow Charges so long as no
Event of Default shall have occurred. No amount so paid to the Mortgagee shall
be deemed to be trust funds, nor shall any sums paid bear interest. The
Mortgagee shall have no obligation to pay any insurance premium or Imposition if
at any time the funds being held by the Mortgagee for such premium or Imposition
are insufficient to make such payments. If, at any time, the funds being held by
the Mortgagee for any insurance premium or Imposition are exhausted, or if the
Mortgagee determines, in its sole discretion, that such funds will be
insufficient to pay in full any insurance premium or Imposition when due, the
Mortgagor shall promptly pay to the Mortgagee, upon demand, an amount which the
Mortgagee shall estimate as sufficient to make up the deficiency. Upon the
occurrence of an Event of Default, the Mortgagee shall have the right, at its
election, to apply any amount so held against the Obligations due and payable in
such order as the Mortgagee may deem fit, and the Mortgagor hereby grants to the
Mortgagee a lien upon and security interest in such amounts for such purpose.
8. Condemnation. The Mortgagor, immediately upon obtaining knowledge of
the institution of any proceedings for the condemnation or taking by eminent
domain of any of the Property, shall notify the Mortgagee of the pendency of
such proceedings. The Mortgagee may participate in any such proceedings and the
Mortgagor shall deliver to the Mortgagee all instruments requested by it to
permit such participation. Any award or compensation for property taken or for
damage to property not taken, whether as a result of such proceedings or in lieu
thereof, is hereby assigned to and shall be received and collected directly by
the Mortgagee, and any award or compensation shall be applied, at the
Mortgagee's option, to any part of the Obligations and in any order
(notwithstanding that any of such
5
Obligations may not then be due and payable) or to the repair and restoration of
any of the Property under such terms and conditions as the Mortgagee may impose.
9. Environmental Matters. Omitted.
10. Inspection of Property. The Mortgagee shall have the right to enter
the Property at any reasonable hour during normal business hours and upon
advance notice, for the purpose of inspecting the order, condition and repair of
the buildings and improvements erected thereon, as well as the conduct of
operations and activities on the Property. The Mortgagee may enter the Property
(and cause the Mortgagee's employees, agents and consultants to enter the
Property), upon prior written notice to the Mortgagor, to conduct any and all
environmental testing deemed appropriate by the Mortgagee in its sole
discretion. The environmental testing shall be accomplished by whatever means
the Mortgagee may deem appropriate, including the taking of soil samples and the
installation of ground water monitoring xxxxx or other intrusive environmental
tests. The Mortgagor shall provide the Mortgagee (and the Mortgagee's employees,
agents and consultants) reasonable rights of access to the Property as well as
such information about the Property and the past or present conduct of
operations and activities thereon as the Mortgagee shall reasonably request.
11. Events of Default. Events of Default under this Mortgage are defined
in the Loan Agreement.
12. Rights and Remedies of Mortgagee. If an Event of Default occurs and is
continuing, the Mortgagee may, at its option and without demand, notice or
delay, do one or more of the following:
(a) The Mortgagee may declare the entire unpaid principal balance of
the Obligations, together with all interest thereon, to be due and payable
immediately.
(b) The Mortgagee may (i) institute and maintain an action of
mortgage foreclosure against the Property and the interests of the Mortgagor
therein, (ii) institute and maintain an action on any instruments evidencing the
Obligations or any portion thereof, and (iii) take such other action at law or
in equity for the enforcement of any of the Loan Documents as the law may allow,
and in each such action the Mortgagee shall be entitled to all costs of suit and
attorneys' fees.
(c) The Mortgagee may, in its sole and absolute discretion: (i)
collect any or all of the Rents, including any Rents past due and unpaid, (ii)
perform any obligation or exercise any right or remedy of the Mortgagor under
any Lease, or (iii) enforce any obligation of any tenant of any of the Property.
The Mortgagee may exercise any right under this subsection (c), whether or not
the Mortgagee shall have entered into possession of any of the Property, and
nothing herein contained shall be construed as constituting the Mortgagee a
"mortgagee in possession", unless the Mortgagee shall have entered into and
shall continue to be in actual possession of the Property. The Mortgagor hereby
authorizes and directs each and every present and future tenant of any of the
Property to pay all Rents directly to the Mortgagee and to perform all other
obligations of that tenant for the direct benefit of the Mortgagee, as if the
Mortgagee were the landlord under the Lease with that tenant, immediately upon
receipt of a demand by the Mortgagee to make such payment or perform such
obligations. The Mortgagor hereby waives any right, claim or demand it may now
or hereafter have against any such tenant by reason of such payment of Rents or
performance of obligations to the Mortgagee, and any such payment or performance
to the Mortgagee shall discharge the obligations of the tenant to make such
payment or performance to the Mortgagor.
6
(d) The Mortgagee shall have the right, in connection with the
exercise of its remedies hereunder, to the appointment of a receiver to take
possession and control of the Property or to collect the Rents, without notice
and without regard to the adequacy of the Property to secure the Obligations.
The Mortgagee or a receiver, while in possession of the Property, shall have the
right to make repairs and to make improvements necessary or advisable in its or
his opinion to preserve the Property, or to make and keep them rentable to the
best advantage, and the Mortgagee may advance moneys to a receiver for such
purposes. Any moneys so expended or advanced by the Mortgagee or by a receiver
shall be added to and become a part of the Obligations secured by this Mortgage.
13. Application of Proceeds. The Mortgagee shall apply the proceeds of any
foreclosure sale of, or other disposition or realization upon, or Rents or
profits from, the Property to satisfy the Obligations in such order of
application as the Mortgagee shall determine in its exclusive discretion.
14. Mortgagee's Right to Protect Security. The Mortgagee is hereby
authorized to do any one or more of the following, irrespective of whether an
Event of Default has occurred: (a) appear in and defend any action or proceeding
purporting to affect the security hereof or the Mortgagee's rights or powers
hereunder; (b) purchase such insurance policies covering the Property as it may
elect if the Mortgagor fails to maintain the insurance coverage required
hereunder; and (c) take such action as the Mortgagee may determine to pay,
perform or comply with any Impositions or Legal Requirements, to cure any Events
of Default and to protect its security in the Property.
15. Appointment of Mortgagee as Attorney-in-Fact. The Mortgagee, or any of
its officers, is hereby irrevocably appointed attorney-in-fact for the Mortgagor
(without requiring any of them to act as such), such appointment being coupled
with an interest, to do any or all of the following: (a) collect the Rents after
the occurrence of an Event of Default; (b) settle for, collect and receive any
awards payable under Section 8 from the authorities making the same; and (c)
execute, deliver and file, at Mortgagor's sole cost and expense such financing,
continuation or amendment statements and other instruments as the Mortgagee may
require in order to perfect, protect and maintain its security interest under
the UCC on any portion of the Property.
16. Certain Waivers. The Mortgagor hereby waives and releases all benefit
that might accrue to the Mortgagor by virtue of any present or future law
exempting the Property, or any part of the proceeds arising from any sale
thereof, from attachment, levy or sale on execution, or providing for any stay
of execution, exemption from civil process or extension of time for payment or
any rights of marshalling in the event of any sale hereunder of the Property,
and, unless specifically required herein, all notices of the Mortgagor's default
or of the Mortgagee's election to exercise, or the Mortgagee's actual exercise
of any option under this Mortgage or any other Loan Document.
17. No Merger. There shall be no merger of the interest or estate created
by this Mortgage with any other interest or estate in the Property at any time
held by or for the benefit of the Mortgagee or any subsidiary or affiliate in
any capacity, without the express prior written consent of the Mortgagee.
18. Mortgage Secures Future Advances. This Mortgage is given for the
purpose of creating a lien on real property in order to secure not only existing
indebtedness, but also future advances, whether such advances are obligatory or
to be made at the option of the Mortgagee, or otherwise, and whether made before
or after a default or Event of Default or maturity or other similar events, to
the same extent as if such future advances were made on the date of the
execution hereof, although there may be no advance made at the time of the
execution hereof and although there may be no indebtedness outstanding at the
time any advance is made. The types of future advances secured by and having
priority under this Mortgage shall include, without limitation, (i) advances and
readvances of principal under the Note or
7
other Loan Documents and (ii) disbursements and other advances for the payment
of taxes, assessments, maintenance charges, insurance premiums or costs relating
to the Property, for the discharge of liens having priority over the lien of
this Mortgage, for the curing of waste of the Property and for the payment of
service charges and expenses incurred by reason of default and including late
charges, attorneys' fees and court costs, together with interest thereon. The
lien of this Mortgage, as to third persons with or without actual knowledge
thereof, shall be valid as to all such indebtedness and future advances, from
the date of recordation, to the extent permitted by the laws of the state in
which the Property is situated. The total amount of the indebtedness secured by
this Mortgage may decrease or increase from time to time, but the total unpaid
principal balance at any one time shall not exceed the maximum principal amount
of the Obligations.
19. Notices. All notices, demands, requests, consents, approvals and other
communications required or permitted hereunder ("Notices") must be in writing
and will be effective upon receipt. Notices may be given in any manner to which
the parties may separately agree, including electronic mail. Without limiting
the foregoing, first-class mail, facsimile transmission and commercial courier
service are hereby agreed to as acceptable methods for giving Notices.
Regardless of the manner in which provided, Notices may be sent to a party's
address as set forth above or to such other address as any party may give to the
other for such purpose in accordance with this section.
20. Further Acts. By its signature hereon, the Mortgagor hereby
irrevocably authorizes the Mortgagee to execute (on behalf of the Mortgagor) and
file against the Mortgagor one or more financing, continuation or amendment
statements pursuant to the UCC in form satisfactory to the Mortgagee, and the
Mortgagor will pay the cost of preparing and filing the same in all
jurisdictions in which such filing is deemed by the Mortgagee to be necessary or
desirable in order to perfect, preserve and protect its security interests. If
required by the Mortgagee, the Mortgagor will execute all documentation
necessary for the Mortgagee to obtain and maintain perfection of its security
interests in the Property. The Mortgagor will, at the cost of the Mortgagor, and
without expense to the Mortgagee, do, execute, acknowledge and deliver all and
every such further acts, deeds, conveyances, mortgages, assignments, notices of
assignment, transfers and assurances as the Mortgagee shall, from time to time,
require for the better assuring, conveying, assigning, transferring or
confirming unto the Mortgagee the property and rights hereby mortgaged, or which
Mortgagor may be or may hereafter become bound to convey or assign to the
Mortgagee, or for carrying out the intent of or facilitating the performance of
the terms of this Mortgage or for filing, registering or recording this
Mortgage. The Mortgagor grants to the Mortgagee an irrevocable power of attorney
coupled with an interest for the purpose of exercising and perfecting any and
all rights and remedies available to the Mortgagee under the Note, this
Mortgage, the other Loan Documents, at law or in equity, including, without
limitation, the rights and remedies described in this paragraph.
21. Changes in the Laws Regarding Taxation. If any law is enacted or
adopted or amended after the date of this Mortgage which deducts the Obligations
from the value of the Property for the purpose of taxation or which imposes a
tax, either directly or indirectly, on the Mortgagor or the Mortgagee's interest
in the Property, the Mortgagor will pay such tax, with interest and penalties
thereon, if any. If the Mortgagee determines that the payment of such tax or
interest and penalties by the Mortgagor would be unlawful or taxable to the
Mortgagee or unenforceable or provide the basis for a defense of usury, then the
Mortgagee shall have the option, by written notice of not less than ninety (90)
days, to declare the entire Obligations immediately due and payable.
22. Documentary Stamps. If at any time the United States of America, any
State thereof or any subdivision of any such State shall require revenue or
other stamps to be affixed to the Note or this
8
Mortgage, or impose any other tax or charge on the same, the Mortgagor will pay
for the same, with interest and penalties thereon, if any.
23. Preservation of Rights. No delay or omission on the Mortgagee's part
to exercise any right or power arising hereunder will impair any such right or
power or be considered a waiver of any such right or power, nor will the
Mortgagee's action or inaction impair any such right or power. The Mortgagee's
rights and remedies hereunder are cumulative and not exclusive of any other
rights or remedies which the Mortgagee may have under other agreements, at law
or in equity.
24. Illegality. If any provision contained in this Mortgage should be
invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, it shall not affect or impair
the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this
Mortgage.
25. Changes in Writing. No modification, amendment or waiver of, or
consent to any departure by the Mortgagor from, any provision of this Mortgage
will be effective unless made in a writing signed by the Mortgagee, and then
such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for
the purpose for which given. No notice to or demand on the Mortgagor will
entitle the Mortgagor to any other or further notice or demand in the same,
similar or other circumstance.
26. Entire Agreement. This Mortgage (including the documents and
instruments referred to herein) constitutes the entire agreement and supersedes
all other prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, between
the Mortgagor and the Mortgagee with respect to the subject matter hereof.
27. Survival; Successors and Assigns. This Mortgage will be binding upon
and inure to the benefit of the Mortgagor and the Mortgagee and their respective
heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns; provided, however,
that the Mortgagor may not assign this Mortgage in whole or in part without the
Mortgagee's prior written consent and the Mortgagee at any time may assign this
Mortgage in whole or in part; and provided, further, that the rights and
benefits under the Paragraphs entitled "Environmental Matters", "Inspection of
Property" and "Indemnity" shall also inure to the benefit of any persons or
entities who acquire title or ownership of the Property from or through the
Mortgagee or through action of the Mortgagee (including a foreclosure, sheriff's
or judicial sale). The provisions of Paragraphs entitled "Environmental
Matters", "Inspection of Property" and "Indemnity" shall survive the
